    Hallo,

    there's probably an explanation ...

    I'm emerging at this point:

    Emerging (51 of 93) perl-core/Encode-3.120.0::gentoo

    and there's NO additional log output for a very long time. Looking at
    ps(1) shows this:

    i.e. it's downloading a tarball for firefox.  But firefox doesn't come
    for a few more hours:

    Emerging (57 of 93) app-emulation/qemu-6.0.0-r3::gentoo

    Is it so on top of things that  it's downloading many packages early,
    and the download is so aggressive, that nothing else can run?

    emerge downloads distfiles for all packages to install in the background
    while the compile jobs are running, check /var/log/emerge-fetch.log. And
    I doubt this has anything to do with it being stuck (unless your disk is abysmally slow and it's stuck on IO, but most likely not).
